3CE Gotta Sing Slim Velvet Lip Color Review & Swatches
3CE Gotta Sing Slim Velvet Lip Color ($17.42) is one of five, limited edition shades that launched with the Mood for Blossom Spring 2019 Collection in March!
I’m not a big, big fan of the Slim Velvet Lip Color formula since I don’t like mattes but some of the shades that launched with Spring 2019 Collection were so pretty I couldn’t resist grabbing a shade or two especially #Gotta Sing that’s a bright, juicy tangerine!
I dunno if I look good in them but I have a heck of a good time with tangerine lipsticks! I especially like hauling out all my bright, bold tangerine shades in the Summer! Gotta Sing is most definitely one! This is a gorgeous true orange tangerine that’s bold, rich, and opaque on a single layer. The color brings back really good memories of the Etude House Miss Tangerine Collection!
3CE Gotta Sing Slim Velvet Lip Color are just that! A slim line lipstick that travels and stores easily. The packaging is a fun orange-y shade to go along with the limited edition Mood in Blossom Collection. Typically, these are housed in a black case but for the Spring 2019 launch they had some fun, special edition packaging.
I’m not a big, big fan of the finish on Slim Velvet Lip Color though as they are a drier matte that applies a little draggy but has a surprisingly smooth, lightweight finish on lips that isn’t hydrating but not terribly drying either as you’d expect from the texture. I can get a solid five hours of wear without migration issues and some staining is left behind as color begins to fade. These lipsticks have no fragrance nor any flavor. I always find this formula an odd contrast as the application isn’t as creamy as I would like but the drier finish doesn’t adhere to my dry lips or fall into my natural lip lines. It always looks quite smooth.
The color is the real joy and what drew me into purchasing a few shades. The Spring 2019 shades are quite fun and fresh and should work well in the Summer ahead! That might something that interests you even of the matte finish doesn’t. Although, I do wish they went with something shinier and glossier for Spring but that would really be veering away from 3CE’s traditional gradient lip look.
3CE Gotta Sing Slim Velvet Lip Color is big on color but the matte finish might be questionable for some!
